2-Story House Plan 2238 ft²: 4 Beds, 3 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

Plan 28680R is a 4-bedroom three-story house plan that pairs Craftsman character with a Traditional American profile, offering 2238 ft² of living space beneath a hip & valley roof. Siding combined with stone/brick veneer gives the facade depth and texture, and the footprint measures 38'0" wide and 46'6" deep. With three full bathrooms, a front-entry 2-car garage and covered porches front and back, this single-family home is laid out for a growing household that wants room to spread out over several levels.

What sets this design apart is its reverse living layout, which lifts the main gathering spaces to an upper level where the house gets its best light and outlook. The open floor plan joins the family room, dining area and kitchen into one connected space, so conversation carries easily from the stove to the sofa. A fireplace anchors the family room and makes it the natural place to settle on a cold evening. The large kitchen is built for everyday cooking and for company, with a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and a separate breakfast nook for slower mornings. A media room adds a dedicated spot for movie nights, while the bonus/flex room can serve as a playroom, home office or guest space as needs change.

The four bedrooms are clustered, keeping the private side of the house together and quiet. The master suite sits on the second floor and includes a walk-in closet, and the three full bathrooms mean no one waits long in the morning. Practical rooms are well covered: laundry on the main floor keeps wash day close to the entry, a utility room handles the mechanical side of the home, and dedicated storage helps keep the living areas uncluttered. A defined entry gives the family a proper place to drop bags and shoes on the way in.

Outside, stacked porches bring outdoor living to more than one level, with a balcony above and a covered front porch and covered rear porch below for shaded seating in any weather. A deck extends the outdoor space further for grilling and summer dinners. The front-entry 2-car garage includes space upstairs, a flexible bonus for hobbies or storage. The house is drawn on a slab foundation and is also available with a basement or crawl space. Exterior walls are framed with 2x6 wood for extra room for insulation, with 2x4 framing available on request. For buyers looking for a Craftsman house plan with a fireplace, an open concept kitchen and a 4 bedroom layout across three stories, 28680R delivers a thoughtful balance of comfort and function.
